Description

Škarin Samograd is an important archaeological location.
Here remains starting from Early Neolithic up to the 3rd century BC were found.
The findings are on display in the Prehistoric Collection of the Arheoloski
muzej Split (Split Archeological Museum).

The entracne of the cave is located at the bottom of a sinkhole, hidden behind
lush vegetation.
Some of the cave is lighted by daylight through the entrance, but torches are
much recommended as trenches from the excavations on the floor are dangerous
traps.

The cave is home to some 1,600 bats.
Five species have been recorded, Myotis myotis, Myotis
schreibersii, Miniopterus, R. ferrumequinum, and Myotis
oxygnathus.
The high amount of bat guano gives the cave the typical scent of ammonia.
Once this guano was mined by the locals.
